  1. Me too. The paint problem was worth it!
  2. Front u joint let go. No loop. It dug into the ground and that chaos happened. Seen that happen before. All my cars now get a front and rear loop for the driveshaft. Cheap insurance
  3. I would assume the f100 will be his own truck yes. I'm betting it won't have the gazillion little body mods though
  4. Wow. I have a soft spot for these. We've had a few torinos in the stable over the years. Where did the roof come from?
  5. Thanks again guys. The wheels came from an historic racing miniatures mark Donahue 65gt350 R Transkit I had laying around. They are a machined lip and cast white metal centres. I made the dust caps from valve cover breathers from a glidden pro stock. I was able to epoxy the kit metal mounting pins into the mounting holes on the aluminum rims so they just popped right on.
  6. I just built a little friction into my hinges. They will stay open or closed
  7. Wow! Top notch work right there
  8. Hey, not a problem. We all have to start somewhere. It's a great kit to start on. What many of us here at all levels like to do if we are not familiar with our subjects is Google some images of what you are working on. Helps a lot. I have 1000s of pics on my computer. Keep at it ?
  9. Here's an old primer Ford I did a looong time ago
  10. It's coming along nicely. One thing, why are the plug wires going into the valve covers and not the heads?
  11. Very well done. I love watching your builds.
  12. An all new tool 71 mach 1. Could spawn 4 versions with minimal work. 3 years of mach 1s and and the boss 351. And a 70/1 cyclone would be nice
  13. That is just amazing!!! Beautiful work.
  14. Try bare metal foil. You will never silver paint trim again
  15. I need to go there. What sucks for me in this hobby is my location on the earth! I'm near nothing, no big contests or shows. I attend one contest a year. Lol. I did however place in the top ten in the 01 custom clinic photo contest. I am hoping our take a turn torino project could find its way into the museum someday.
  16. I see what's going on here. See what's by the mouse? Someone with some info is playing with chargers. That's sweet?
  17. Awesome. I love the black trim. I was going to suggest it vs Chrome. I'm not kidding about wanting it either.... If you ever want to part with it let me know. I'd love to have it in my collection
  18. That is awesome now!! Great work
